Chapter 85: The Contract
Nicholas froze and lowered his proud head, he thought about it for a long time before he said: "You can only reciprocate the contract, otherwise if you die, my soul will be affected, like Loraine." ”
Luo Fei was proud in his heart, no matter how reciprocal the contract was, it was not to listen to his own orders, and he couldn't try to kill himself, at most it was a little restrictive, such as not being able to share the power of the dragon clan, so he said: "Of course, we are brothers, you should play in the human race for a while, and also help me." In this way, let's sign the soul contract first, as long as Luo Lan cancels the contract, it will take effect, otherwise it will be invalid forever, what do you think?"
Nicholas frowned, and then observed Luo Fei's strength, thinking about Luo Fei's status, he felt that it was not too embarrassing, he hesitated for a long time, and finally nodded.
The dragons are arrogant, but in their bones, they are deeply affected by the shameful tradition of the dragons being contracted by the human race, and when they really encounter this kind of thing, Nicholas seems to regard the contract as a normal behavior again.
Outside the city of Oro, there is a fertile black soil plain, the plain is full of lush forests, low hills, dotted lakes and villages, the wide Oro River on the plain as a tributary of the main river of the Orlan Empire, leading directly to Yanjing Yago City, the river from time to time appeared merchant ships, that are the most ordinary dhows.
From time to time, the cheerful chants of the peasants can be heard on both sides of the Oro River, in a minor tune based on the bard, who praise the supreme gods who have bestowed upon them this fertile land. The land on both sides of the river is full of gold, and all the farmers are stepping up their harvesting and harvesting in the fields, and it is a gratifying harvest scene.
Alien to this place are a large number of soldiers on the plains, who are building a huge barracks by the water, which is also a kind of training.
The barracks are a short distance away from the river, on a higher slope by the river, use a deep ditch to lead the river water into the camp, there are ditches on all sides, the two-layer wooden walled wall is very tall, the horse, arrow sentry and so on are all available, but the gate is relatively simple.
The soil used to dig the trenches was not only used to strengthen the walls, but was also scattered throughout the wall, which could be used to extinguish fires.
The camp tents in the barracks are rigorously arranged, and the front army and the Chinese army have large tents. The left and right guards, the logistics of the rear army, the training and the impact land in the battalion, etc., are all well planned.
There were three small groups of scouts patrolling the barracks, and in the distance upstream of the river, there was also a group of scouts building a watchtower on a hilly plateau.
On the wide river that runs through the plain, many members of the garrison are training to build pontoon bridges, and there is even a team of cavalry, constantly exploring along the river.
The pontoon bridge is connected in sections, which is suitable for rivers with small waves, and does not affect the passing of ships for the time being.
When Loren went to look for Raphael, she saw this scene outside the city, and she was amazed, and hurried to the barracks, where a group of scouts came to inquire and led her to the barracks.
Each gate of the barracks was guarded by a team of 100 people, and after being informed, she came to the Chinese army's tent under the guidance of the soldiers on duty, and met Raphael and Amilia.
Emilia was also curious about the affairs of the army, and the army was safe, so she slipped over.
Raphael was happy to see her and said, "Honey, you're finally back." As he spoke, he picked up her fleshy body and kissed it, and then he thought of Valery and Nicos, if only Loren were there, and sighed.
In the few days that Loren was taken care of by Raphael, she had already been touched by Raphael, who was cheap and not a bastard, she was quite used to being in close contact with Raphael, and she was affected by the contract, so she hung on Raphael and sprinkled on her, and then excitedly took out the drawings and chirped.
Raphael and Emilia saw that the camouflage on the drawing had been removed, and it was an ancient map of the city's defenses, which was very detailed.
Looking carefully, Raphael found the sealing room, and after looking at it for a while, he frowned and said: "Dear Loran, this picture is only a city defense facility, a ruin, but it is by no means a treasure relic, but this place outside the city is a little different, you see, it seems to be inconspicuous, but there is one thing that exposes the anomaly, that is, the description of this terrain is more detailed than other places." ”
Emilia pointed to the side of the sealing room on the picture and said, "Isn't this stone room very similar? It also seems to lead to the secret passage in the study, but the place where you enter the secret passage is sealed, and it seems that this is the official entrance to the sealing stone room." The study of the main fort can lead to a secret passage, which was accidentally dug up by the city lord when he was building the secret room. If there was an artifact, it would probably be here. ”
Raphael said: "Lorraine, I heard something, do you know about Oro City?"
Loren thought about it, and then said, what she said was similar to Nicholas, after speaking, she looked at Emilia's glowing eyes, and said: "It seems that this artifact belongs to the human race, I definitely can't use it, and it will be difficult to sell it, so if you find the treasure, the artifact belongs to you, and the treasure will be at least half of it." The condition is that the contract is terminated. ”
Raphael naturally nodded in agreement.
Emilia didn't know everything about Lorain, so she asked clearly, dragons? She looked at Lorain's eyes with a strange light, she turned her head, not looking at Lorain, and said, "No problem, Raphael and I distract the artifact and the remaining treasure." ”
Raphael said: "As Luo Lan said, the dragon clan can't use the artifact, they just want the human race not to get it, so it's impossible to put it near the seal." I still think it's out of town in this place. ”
He pointed to the more detailed place on the map, which was in the mountains near the city of Oro, and there was a strange hill, like a great low obelisk, and a small lake at the foot of the mountain.
Of course, Emilia did not give up, and said: "In this case, I am familiar with the city, and there are not many places left that no one has ever looked for, give me the map, and I will go to the rest of the city with Lorain to look for it." ”
Although Emilia was often with Hans, the Night Alliance still had a lot of men in Oro City, and of course these men were monitoring the city's movements, and she could eliminate many places that had been found.
Luo Lan seemed to have countless gold coins in front of her, and nodded hurriedly, she was not reconciled, if it was leaked, it would be all treasures!
Raphael must have gone to look for Gloria, but Loren came too coincidentally, Emilia happened to be there, he was not partial, so he said: "It's okay, anyway, this matter is not in a hurry, Gloria and they are also looking for it, whoever finds it depends on luck." ”
Emilia sneered, "I may have helped you with this." ”
Raphael was surprised: "What do you say?"
Emilia said, "Do you know the Descending Son of the Demon God Cult?"
The official name of the Son of Advent is the Son of God, of course Raphael had heard of it, so he said strangely: "I know something, but what does this have to do with you helping Glorie?"
Emilia smiled proudly: "Of course it matters, the Demon God Sect is the Holy Son, because the oracle requires it, obviously the Demon God is a male god, and the Holy Light Sect is a goddess, and it has always been a descending saint, in the Holy Light Church, a woman who is favored by God can first be promoted as a god's favored saint, and let her be in what priesthood." Not to mention that Gloria got the artifact, even the holy light that Oro broke out a while ago is enough for her to become a god-favored saintess, ho-ho-ho!"
Raphael did not understand, and said, "Is there anything wrong with this? I have heard that those who have been sent down by God have received great power after God has left, and their status in the Holy See will be more respected." ”
Emilia rolled her eyes and said, "Raphael, I know that you have read a lot of knightly biographies, but you don't know the real situation, including Gloria, I'm afraid you don't know either, because the Holy Light Church has always hypocritically covered up everything. I've checked the Advent Rituals of the Demon God Cult, and those Holy Sons who have been descended are simply too revered in status, and they are served like babies, do you know why?"
Lorain listened attentively and interjected, "Why?"
Emilia said gloomily: "I was surprised to find that after the coming, the Holy Son only had a little instinct left! When something big happened in the sect, the Holy Son would be pushed to the front to fight, and basically those Holy Sons with great strength were killed in battle. I think you understand, why did these holy sons die? Raphael, don't think it's because of the Demon God Cult, let me tell you, the Holy Light Church is the same, believe it or not! You can also be regarded as a necromancer, you should have some understanding, right? If Gloria gets the artifact again, she will be easily promoted by her opponent to be a goddess, and she can't shirk it no matter what. ”
Raphael frowned, and then, trembling and annoyed, said, "Damn, can't Gloria quit the church? ”
Emilia smiled, "Yes, why not, my people and I can give her shelter, but is she willing?"
Raphael pursed his lips, this was obviously impossible, if Gloria wanted to, there would be a ghost, he said unwillingly: "Doesn't the Pope understand this situation?"
Emilia said: "Of course St. Paul understands, but after all, there are very few things that come, this is a shortcut, and, as far as I know, ascetics have always been not very supportive of the Pope, they support the ascetic Cardinal Arris, St. Paul must be very eager to reverse this situation, ascetics are a powerful force, although they have also fallen into the mundane, no longer as pure as before, but after all, they have to work harder than ordinary priests, and there are still those who still maintain penance, and there are still many strong ones." Once Gloria gets the artifact, then she will naturally be recognized by them, and St. Paul's position will be more stable, and illegitimate daughters will no longer be defective. ”
At this time, the soldier guards outside reported: "Lord Viscount Luo Fei asks to see you." ”
When Emilia heard this, she said, "You go and deal with this billet, this guy, the more I look at it, the more unpleasant it becomes, he is simply a loyal knight of St. Paul, and I don't know what this bastard's plans are." ”
